Amount of care given by daughters and perceived relationship quality with care-receiving mothersEvans, Lorina S. 10 July 1996 (has links)
The relationship between mothers and daughters has been shown to be
generally positive and strong throughout the life cycle. The relationship may
become strained, however, as mothers become dependent due to deteriorating
health or chronic health conditions. It has long been recognized in both the
gerontological and intergenerational literatures that caring for a dependent
elderly parent can be burdensome and stressful for some caregiving adult
daughters. Using the elaborated wear-and-tear hypothesis, this study examined
longitudinally the impact of the amount of care given on 140 caregiving
daughters' perception of the quality of their relationship with their elderly
dependent mothers. It was hypothesized that increases in the amount of care
given by caregiving daughters over time would lead to a corresponding decrease
in relationship quality. It was also hypothesized that relationship quality and
amount of care given would be stable over time. Results indicated that providing
more care does decrease relationship quality between caregiving daughters and
care-receiving mothers over time although it does not do so initially. Further, the
results of study showed that relationship quality and amount of care given, on
average, are stable over time. / Graduation date: 1997

Decision-making influence strategies and relationship quality among elderly mothers and their caregiving daughtersJones-Aust, Laura Lynn 09 October 1992 (has links)
It is well established that family members,
particularly adult children, are involved in their frail
parents' decision making. It remains unclear however, how
intergenerational decision-making influence is exercised and
how it relates to personal and relationship characteristics.
This study examined the impact of decision-making strategies
and a mother's level of dependence on her daughter on
perceived relationship quality as measured by intimacy.
The purposive sample consisted of 64 pairs of elderly
mothers and their caregiving daughters. Face-to-face
interviews explored the connections of various decision-making
influence strategies, demographic characteristics,
and relationship quality. Mother's level of dependence on
her daughter for assistance was measured by a list of 53
caregiving tasks and activities. A series of four multiple
regression analyses was used to predict relationship quality
from the decision-making influence strategies (i.e., option-seeking,
overt negative, covert negative, positive) used by
elderly mothers and their caregiving daughters and mother's
level of dependence on her daughter.
The factors that were most predictive of mothers'
perceived intimacy were: (a) mothers' reported use of
positive decision-making strategies (e.g., asking partner
how she feels, imagining her feelings) and mothers' reported
use of fewer covert negative strategies (e.g., ignoring the
need for a decision, withholding support); and (b)
daughters' reported use of fewer overt negative strategies
(e.g., showing anger, irritation, criticizing).
The factors that were most predictive of daughters'
perceived intimacy were: (a) daughters' reported use of
fewer overt negative strategies (e.g., showing anger,
irritation, criticizing); (b) daughters' reported use of
positive influence strategies (e.g., asking partner how she
feels, imagining her feelings); and (c) mothers' reported
use of positive strategies (e.g., asking how she feels,
trying to imagine her feelings).
Mother's level of dependence on her daughter was not
found to be predictive of mothers' or daughters' perceived
intimacy. These results as well as recommendations for
future research and practice are presented. / Graduation date: 1993
